The poster for Peace Is Tough at the Arches in Glasgow, March 2001, the exhibition shared by Jamie Reid and a young Banksy.
The Piece
Printed in red and blue on white, it sets the pinned queen of punk beside a stencilled rat, with both names lettered across the centre and the dates of the opening night beneath. It measures 60.3 by 41.7 cm and has been folded for posting.
There is damage along parts of the fold lines, and the sheet is offered as a survivor in honest condition.
Peace Is Tough
Jamie Reid, who died in 2023, gave punk its ransom note lettering and its safety pinned queen. In March 2001 he shared the Arches in Glasgow with a young stencil artist from Bristol for an exhibition called Peace Is Tough, among the earliest gallery outings for the younger man, and paper from that fortnight is seldom seen.
